NICE recommend acupuncture

New Guidelines  from the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommend acupuncture for treating low back pain. Clinical trials of acupuncture  have been thoroughly reviewed by the experts, and the results show positive evidence that acupuncture works for low back pain.

 NICE is the authority that the NHS uses to inform practice, so conventional doctors will now have confidence in acupuncture for this condition.

 People who use acupuncture have known how effective it is for a long time, so its really good to have it confirmed by evidence-based research.
